A review by hoperu
Silver on the Road by Laura Anne Gilman

4.0

The Old West, as ruled by the devil, where magicians and spirits and demons and magic exist. Isobel is the Devil's Hand - a sort of special agent - but she is brand new to the job and untested and untrained. As she starts out on the road, she finds that the job is not what she expected, and there is danger coming into the territory that she alone can stop.

I like this and hope that it does indeed have a sequel or two. I appreciated that although the two main characters are a man and a young woman thrown together, there was no romance, and I am happy about that primarily because Isobel is only 16, something that is a prominent point.
